Heroes of Midhgardhur

Ragnarokkur

Ragnarokkur

In Northern religious eschatology, the name of the fabled end of the world.

Valerianus’ private note: Yes, I am aware that the spelling “Ragnarok” (as in English) is closer to the original, and that the spelling “Ragnarokkur” is later, based on folk etymology, and is therefore less accurate. However, the spelling “Ragnarokkur” gets us away from English and away from a common spelling and a common idea, and gives us a more traditional Nordic “feel” for purposes of my Game and fiction . . . so I follow the “Ragnarokkur” spelling and folk etymology in Midhgardhur, and let historical accuracy look out for itself – this is a fantasy game, after all . . .
